So after getting up at 2 am to feed a hungry 2 month old and then again at 5, as I am burping said infant I hear screams. I send DH to check on A. and he is met with this:

I hear him trying to get baby back to sleep because well, he is a "I sleep til 7:30" baby and I am all

to this 5:30 wakeup. He has been working on teeth though, so after I get I back asleep I go down to give A some motrin. Meh, now he is up and ready to face the day. DH has to work today so I am all like 

image

"Sure honey go back to bed once you get I back asleep, I will deal with A." Because I am an amazing wife and I deserve a super duper gold star.

So I get Aiden in the Kitchen waiting for his morning milk, which gets him all

and gives me a couple minutes to pee in peace. Or so I think, until this giant beast of a thing presents himself:

image

For those that don't know (like I didn't) that sucker is a spider cricket. That shit is real. I had no clue what it was but my instinct was 

image

And I bravely killed it. Then my dog prancing that the back door while I let my Keurig heat up

dog gets excited for a walk

I go to open the door, and realize, Holy shizzballs it is another effing spider cricket! I go to kill it and it jumped on me.

DH runs downstairs at my scream, I get the stupid thing dead, he goes back to bed. Then this was A the next 3 hours until naptime:

And then naptime came. And I woke up. THE.FREAKING.END.

    I love gif stories but that is a rough morning! I am pretty sure I have done more than just screamed if that sucker jumped on me. It gives me the willies just thinking about it!

    lol @Sharona1700. I didn't even know they were a thing until I googled them, because I tried to describe it to DH and my description was "it is like a spider, cricket, cockroach thing. It has the body of a spider, legs of a cricket, and giant antennae like a roach." I think he may have thought I was crazy.

    IT JUMPED ON YOU?! Holy cow, I would have freaked! It must have known what you did to its brother. Still, though, kill those things dead!
